Fans of Krispy Kreme can celebrate the long holiday weekend with a dozen doughnuts for only $2.

To get the sweet deal, customers at participating stores can purchase 12 doughnuts in any flavor at regular price and then get a batch of original glazed doughnuts for just $2 more with Krispy Kreme’s new “Go for Two” promotion, celebrating both the holiday and the start of the NFL regular season.

The popular chain also recently announced a partnership with Dr Pepper to collaborate on a host of new doughnut flavors, including their Dr Pepper Kickoff Doughnut, a glazed doughnut with Dr Pepper- flavored icing and a white chocolate Dr Pepper logo on top.

This holiday weekend, whether you’re going on a road trip or watching the start of the football season at home, a dozen original glazed doughnuts for $2 could be, as Krispy Kreme says, the “perfect way to add a sweet touchdown to your game day celebrations.”

Krispy Kreme has given away free doughnuts on many occasions, from birthdays to other holidays and even Election Day.
